+<dimension_8_context>
+This dimension enforces the Nyquist-Shannon Sampling Theorem for AI code generation:
+if OpenCode's executor produces output at high frequency (one task per commit), feedback
+must run at equally high frequency. A plan that produces code without pre-defined
+automated verification is under-sampled — errors will be statistically missed.
+
+The gsd-phase-researcher already determined WHAT to test. This dimension verifies
+that the planner correctly incorporated that information into the actual task plans.
+</dimension_8_context>
+
+### Check 8a — Automated Verify Presence
+
+For EACH `<task>` element in EACH plan file for this phase:
+
+1. Does `<verify>` contain an `<automated>` command (or structured equivalent)?
+2. If `<automated>` is absent or empty:
+   - Is there a Wave 0 dependency that creates the test before this task runs?
+   - If no Wave 0 dependency exists → **BLOCKING FAIL**
+3. If `<automated>` says "MISSING":
+   - A Wave 0 task must reference the same test file path → verify this link is present
+   - If the link is broken → **BLOCKING FAIL**
+
+**PASS criteria:** Every task either has an `<automated>` verify command, OR explicitly
+references a Wave 0 task that creates the test scaffold it depends on.
+
+### Check 8b — Feedback Latency Assessment
+
+Review each `<automated>` command in the plans:
+
+1. Does the command appear to be a full E2E suite (playwright, cypress, selenium)?
+   - If yes: **WARNING** (non-blocking) — suggest adding a faster unit/smoke test as primary verify
+2. Does the command include `--watchAll` or equivalent watch mode flags?
+   - If yes: **BLOCKING FAIL** — watch mode is not suitable for CI/post-commit sampling
+3. Does the command include `sleep`, `wait`, or arbitrary delays > 30 seconds?
+   - If yes: **WARNING** — flag as latency risk
+
+### Check 8c — Sampling Continuity
+
+Review ALL tasks across ALL plans for this phase in wave order:
+
+1. Map each task to its wave number
+2. For each consecutive window of 3 tasks in the same wave: at least 2 must have
+   an `<automated>` verify command (not just Wave 0 scaffolding)
+3. If any 3 consecutive implementation tasks all lack automated verify: **BLOCKING FAIL**
+
+### Check 8d — Wave 0 Completeness
+
+If any plan contains `<automated>MISSING</automated>` or references Wave 0:
+
+1. Does a Wave 0 task exist for every MISSING reference?
+2. Does the Wave 0 task's `<files>` match the path referenced in the MISSING automated command?
+3. Is the Wave 0 task in a plan that executes BEFORE the dependent task?
+
+**FAIL condition:** Any MISSING automated verify without a matching Wave 0 task.

 ## Step 1: Load Context
 
-Gather verification context from the phase directory and project state.
-
+Load phase operation context:
 ```bash
-# Normalize phase and find directory
-PADDED_PHASE=$(printf "%02d" ${PHASE_ARG} 2>/dev/null || echo "${PHASE_ARG}")
-PHASE_DIR=$(ls -d .planning/phases/${PADDED_PHASE}-* .planning/phases/${PHASE_ARG}-* 2>/dev/null | head -1)
+INIT=$(node ~/.config/opencode/get-shit-done/bin/gsd-tools.cjs init phase-op "${PHASE_ARG}")
+```
 
-# List all PLAN.md files
-ls "$PHASE_DIR"/*-PLAN.md 2>/dev/null
+Extract from init JSON: `phase_dir`, `phase_number`, `has_plans`, `plan_count`.
 
-# Get phase goal from ROADMAP
-grep -A 10 "Phase ${PHASE_NUM}" .planning/ROADMAP.md | head -15
+Orchestrator provides CONTEXT.md content in the verification prompt. If provided, parse for locked decisions, discretion areas, deferred ideas.
 
-# Get phase brief if exists
-ls "$PHASE_DIR"/*-BRIEF.md 2>/dev/null
+```bash
+ls "$phase_dir"/*-PLAN.md 2>/dev/null
+# read research for Nyquist validation data
+cat "$phase_dir"/*-RESEARCH.md 2>/dev/null
+node ~/.config/opencode/get-shit-done/bin/gsd-tools.cjs roadmap get-phase "$phase_number"
+ls "$phase_dir"/*-BRIEF.md 2>/dev/null
 ```
 
-**Extract:**
-- Phase goal (from ROADMAP.md)
-- Requirements (decompose goal into what must be true)
-- Phase context (from BRIEF.md if exists)
+**Extract:** Phase goal, requirements (decompose goal), locked decisions, deferred ideas.
 
 ## Step 2: Load All Plans
 
-read each PLAN.md file in the phase directory.
+Use gsd-tools to validate plan structure:
 
 ```bash
 for plan in "$PHASE_DIR"/*-PLAN.md; do
   echo "=== $plan ==="
-  cat "$plan"
+  PLAN_STRUCTURE=$(node ~/.config/opencode/get-shit-done/bin/gsd-tools.cjs verify plan-structure "$plan")
+  echo "$PLAN_STRUCTURE"
 done
 ```
 
-**Parse from each plan:**
-- Frontmatter (phase, plan, wave, depends_on, files_modified, autonomous, must_haves)
-- Objective
-- Tasks (type, name, files, action, verify, done)
-- Verification criteria
-- Success criteria
+Parse JSON result: `{ valid, errors, warnings, task_count, tasks: [{name, hasFiles, hasAction, hasVerify, hasDone}], frontmatter_fields }`
+
+Map errors/warnings to verification dimensions:
+- Missing frontmatter field → `task_completeness` or `must_haves_derivation`
+- task missing elements → `task_completeness`
+- Wave/depends_on inconsistency → `dependency_correctness`
+- Checkpoint/autonomous mismatch → `task_completeness`
 
 ## Step 3: Parse must_haves
 
-Extract must_haves from each plan frontmatter.
+Extract must_haves from each plan using gsd-tools:
+
+```bash
+MUST_HAVES=$(node ~/.config/opencode/get-shit-done/bin/gsd-tools.cjs frontmatter get "$PLAN_PATH" --field must_haves)
+```

 ## Step 4: Check Requirement Coverage
 
-Map phase requirements to tasks.
+Map requirements to tasks:
 
-**For each requirement from phase goal:**
-1. Find task(s) that address it
-2. Verify task action is specific enough
-3. Flag uncovered requirements

-## Step 5: Validate Task Structure
+For each requirement: find covering task(s), verify action is specific, flag gaps.

+## Step 5: Validate task Structure
 
-For each task, verify required fields exist.
+Use gsd-tools plan-structure verification (already run in Step 2):
 
 ```bash
-# Count tasks and check structure
-grep -c "<task" "$PHASE_DIR"/*-PLAN.md
+PLAN_STRUCTURE=$(node ~/.config/opencode/get-shit-done/bin/gsd-tools.cjs verify plan-structure "$PLAN_PATH")
+```
+
+The `tasks` array in the result shows each task's completeness:
+- `hasFiles` — files element present
+- `hasAction` — action element present
+- `hasVerify` — verify element present
+- `hasDone` — done element present
+
+**Check:** valid task type (auto, checkpoint:*, tdd), auto tasks have files/action/verify/done, action is specific, verify is runnable, done is measurable.
 
-# Check for missing verify elements
+**For manual validation of specificity** (gsd-tools checks structure, not content quality):
+```bash
 grep -B5 "</task>" "$PHASE_DIR"/*-PLAN.md | grep -v "<verify>"
 ```
 
-**Check:**
-- Task type is valid (auto, checkpoint:*, tdd)
-- Auto tasks have: files, action, verify, done
-- Action is specific (not "implement auth")
-- Verify is runnable (command or check)
-- Done is measurable (acceptance criteria)
-
 ## Step 6: Verify Dependency Graph
 
-Build and validate the dependency graph.
-
-**Parse dependencies:**
 ```bash
-# Extract depends_on from each plan
 for plan in "$PHASE_DIR"/*-PLAN.md; do
   grep "depends_on:" "$plan"
 done
 ```
 
-**Validate:**
-1. All referenced plans exist
-2. No circular dependencies
-3. Wave numbers consistent with dependencies
-4. No forward references (early plan depending on later)
-
-**Cycle detection:** If A -> B -> C -> A, report cycle.
+Validate: all referenced plans exist, no cycles, wave numbers consistent, no forward references. If A -> B -> C -> A, report cycle.

+## Step 7: Check Key Links

-**For each key_link in must_haves:**
-1. Find the source artifact task
-2. Check if action mentions the connection
-3. Flag missing wiring
-
-**Example check:**

-Missing: No mention of fetch/API call in action
-Issue: Key link not planned
+task 2 action: "Create Chat component with message list..."
+Missing: No mention of fetch/API call → Issue: Key link not planned
 ```
 
 ## Step 8: Assess Scope
 
-Evaluate scope against context budget.
-
-**Metrics per plan:**
 ```bash
-# Count tasks
-grep -c "<task" "$PHASE_DIR"/${PHASE}-01-PLAN.md
-
-# Count files in files_modified
-grep "files_modified:" "$PHASE_DIR"/${PHASE}-01-PLAN.md
+grep -c "<task" "$PHASE_DIR"/$PHASE-01-PLAN.md
+grep "files_modified:" "$PHASE_DIR"/$PHASE-01-PLAN.md
 ```
 
-**Thresholds:**
-- 2-3 tasks/plan: Good
-- 4 tasks/plan: Warning
-- 5+ tasks/plan: Blocker (split required)
+Thresholds: 2-3 tasks/plan good, 4 warning, 5+ blocker (split required).
 
 ## Step 9: Verify must_haves Derivation
 
-Check that must_haves are properly derived from phase goal.
+**Truths:** user-observable (not "bcrypt installed" but "passwords are secure"), testable, specific.
 
-**Truths should be:**
-- User-observable (not "bcrypt installed" but "passwords are secure")
-- Testable by human using the app
-- Specific enough to verify
+**Artifacts:** map to truths, reasonable min_lines, list expected exports/content.
 
-**Artifacts should:**
-- Map to truths (which truth does this artifact support?)
-- Have reasonable min_lines estimates
-- List exports or key content expected
-
-**Key_links should:**
-- Connect artifacts that must work together
-- Specify the connection method (fetch, Prisma query, import)
-- Cover critical wiring (where stubs hide)
+**Key_links:** connect dependent artifacts, specify method (fetch, Prisma, import), cover critical wiring.
 
 ## Step 10: Determine Overall Status
 
-Based on all dimension checks:
-
-**Status: passed**
-- All requirements covered
-- All tasks complete (fields present)
-- Dependency graph valid
-- Key links planned
-- Scope within budget
-- must_haves properly derived
+**passed:** All requirements covered, all tasks complete, dependency graph valid, key links planned, scope within budget, must_haves properly derived.
